Yoga For Seniors
STAY STRONG, MOBILE & FLEXIBLE
ABOUT THE CLASS
Yoga for Seniors focuses on correct alignment as well as proper support for the needs of each student. We use various props to support the body, so that correct joint alignment is not compromised., to reduce lower limbs loading and provide stability and facilitate muscle activation. Students learn to use the props for their own needs and whilst some may use a chair, others may go to the floor, some may sit cross legged, others may keep their legs straight etc...
We learn to listen to our bodies, and practise as deeply as we can, in a way that will continue to bring benefits, without going into pain or aggravating the condition.
We do a lot of standing and balancing poses to keep our legs strong, we move all our joints to maintain good range of movements, we open, lengthen, stretch our trunk to stay tall!
We do belly work for core strength and protect our backs, we do relaxation and breathing, we use chairs, straps, bolsters, blocks, wooden sticks, pads, the floor, the wall and partners.

The class is ran by an experienced teacher with over 30 years of teaching experience in a caring and professional environment.
